Proof66 Notes

The Glenlivet Nadurra line (Gaelic for "natural") is meant to be a return to rustic, classical traditions of scotch-making, including cask strength bottling and non-chill filtered spirit. Originally offered with age statements, the brand was re-launched without an age statement and given a finish in first-fill Spanish Oloroso sherry casks, a common practice in scotch offering a color and character to the whisky. This particular expression is bottled at an unusually mild 80 proof, the absolute minimum for scotch (the more customary single malt bottling proof is 86) and presumably meant to be soft, approachable, and mild.

The Glenlivet Distillery (note the use of the indefinite article "the" allowed by court decree in 1884) is the top-selling single malt scotch in the world. It is often considered the classic Speyside, producing unpeated (that is, non-smoky) scotch whisky. The name translates as "valley of the smooth flowing one." They are proud of their mineral rich water from "Josie's well" and their tall copper stills, producing lighter vapors for smoother, more buoyant whisky. The brand is owned by French-based Pernod-Ricard.
